Red Rebels

814 The oath before the holy war

Man of the Match, Jack Rodwell

The young boy born in the 1990s transformed into a perfect iron gate

The Red Rebels youth training camp has another defensive star

After the game against Newcastle, news reports about the rivalry between Rodwell and Carroll completely occupied the large and small sports newspapers in England, as well as detailed analysis of the confrontation between the two.

Carroll tragically only had one shot in the game, while Rodwell had two shots, one with his left foot and one with his right foot. His right foot scored a long shot from outside the penalty area, which made everyone see his ability. Comprehensive, especially in his full-field defense, Carroll and Newcastle's attacking players were unable to get the slightest bit of sweetness in his area.

England's most popular center forward met England's most promising center back. The confrontation between the two players was dubbed by the media as to who would become England's leader in the next 10 years. As a result, Rodwell had no choice. Doubt wins.

Also winning was another Jack, Jack Wilshere, who also came out of the Red Rebels youth training camp. His performance in this FA Cup was equally eye-catching, and he is only 17 years old this year.

The first team is invincible and the youth training camp is full of talents. The Red Rebels seem to have become the most powerful and invincible football team in today's football. So far this season, they have maintained a winning record in all competitions.

Are they too strong? Or are their opponents too weak?

…

I started my playing career in 1958, so it has been 51 years now, and my coaching career can be traced back to 1974, which is 35 years ago. The reason why I say this is not to prove that my resume is good. How amazing, but I want to say that in such a long time, I have never seen a team as strong as the Red Rebels.

The live TV footage showed Ferguson being interviewed. His spirit seemed a little sluggish. After all, when he was being interviewed, his team had just lost 0:2 at home to the Red Rebels.

That was the third time Manchester United met the Red Rebels this season, and they ended up losing without exception. Then they were eliminated in the League Cup. This was definitely a big blow to Ferguson.

In my memory, the team that impressed me the most was Real Madrid. I was impressed by the style of the Los Blancos back then. I was fortunate enough to experience the first dynasty, especially in Glasgow, Scotland in 1960. Champions League final at Hampden Park.

Ferguson showed an intoxicated look and said with relish: Real Madrid was trailing Frankfurt 0:1 at the time, but in the end, relying on the outstanding performances of superstars such as Puskas and Di Stefano, they staged an incredible performance. A great reversal, and finally defeated Frankfurt 7:3.

Yes, maybe for some fans who have little experience in playing football, Manchester United's defeat of Bayern in 1999 and Liverpool's huge reversal of Manchester United last season are more classic, but I don't think so. That Real Madrid team at that time brought people It’s a crazy, mesmerizing, compelling piece of football art.”

For many, many years, especially after I started coaching, I have a very deep understanding of the true meaning of football. I began to doubt that there will no longer be any team that can bring me that Real Madrid team. It’s a combination of superstars and football, an interweaving of art and technology, and the supreme realm of football.”

But I never imagined that I would be lucky enough to meet an amazing team in the past few years. The shock to me was not inferior to the Real Madrid team back then, and even the impact they had on me was even greater. Far better than that Real Madrid team back then.

The same gathering of superstars, the same playing of artistic offensive football, the same impressive playing style, but today's Red Rebels have an even more valuable temperament, that is, their players are absolutely Most of them come from their own youth training, and they are extremely united and extremely loyal.

Three world footballers are on the same team. Each position has at least one of the world's best superstars. At the same time, there is also a team that can cultivate three world footballers in less than 5 years. Mr.’s youth training camp, what a terrible team this is? It’s even doubtful that this team will one day decline?”

After the excitement, Ferguson seemed more rational, but in his words, it was not difficult to see his admiration for the Red Rebels.

Every great team is only born in the era in which it lives. The comparison between Guan Gong and Qin Qiong is meaningless, and the technical and tactical levels of football are constantly reforming and innovating, which makes the team that dominated Europe last year, this year The season may end in failure in all competitions because their opponents are always able to find their loopholes and suppress them.

The Manchester United of 1999 was the most perfect Manchester United, but was defeated by Redondo's Real Madrid a year later; the 1960 Real Madrid also inevitably stepped down after winning five consecutive Champions League titles; the 1970 team Brazil, which is said to be the strongest in history, failed to continue its glory in 1974; and the same was true for West Germany in 1974.

The Netherlands, the uncrowned king, the Milan dynasty created by Arrigo Sacchi, Capello, and the Three Musketeers of the Netherlands, these teams that once had brilliant records, failed to rewrite the laws of football in the end. Without exception, they all fell behind after their peak. It’s been uphill and downhill.”

But now this Red Rebels, after creating a great 7 Grand Slam crowns, although they have missed the Champions League for two consecutive seasons, the strong strength they have shown in the European competition and the Premier League is also called People are scared, which proves that their strength has not declined.”

In this season, the players of the Red Rebels have risen strongly, the core players have entered the golden period of their careers, the young players have matured, and the young players in the youth training camp have grown and improved. These have created the strength of the Red Rebels this season. As a result, they have always maintained a complete victory so far, and no team in Europe can compete with them.

They completely broke the rules of football. After they reached their peak, they continued to make progress, not only in terms of technical and tactical improvements, but also in the progress of the players. After Beckham retired, Fabre Gass, Michael Johnson and others quickly took on the important responsibilities, and Ronaldinho, Kaká, Messi and Aguero also immediately became the leaders of the team.

The strength of the Red Rebels has been steadily improving every year, which makes it clear to all teams that it is getting more and more difficult to defeat them. They are the strongest team in this era and also the most difficult to defeat. There is no other team like this.”

When a reporter interviewing Ferguson said, There are many rumors from the outside world. I heard that many Premier League teams involuntarily chose to give up the game when they encountered the Red Rebels, and concentrated on preparing for the next game. Will Manchester United Have you ever had such an idea?

Ferguson shook his head, No, I have never heard of such rumors. Today's Premier League competition is very fierce, even cruel. No matter who the opponent is, striving for 3 points is the bottom line for Premier League teams. I don’t think any team would voluntarily forfeit a game against the Red Rebels.”

There is no doubt that the Red Rebels are very strong, but I think we can look at it from another perspective. There are currently countless teams, coaches and players who are targeting the Red Rebels. They all aim to win against the Red Rebels. Taking pride in scoring points and scoring goals, countless teams have used the Red Rebels as a mirror to find their own shortcomings and improve them.

This makes many teams not only give up the game against the Red Rebels as the rumors say, but on the contrary, they often work harder in the game against the Red Rebels. They regard this as a A way and way to improve themselves, they will make long-term progress in the game, which is the case for us at Manchester United.

After hearing this, the reporter smiled and asked again: You admire the Red Disk so much, but are you confident that you will defeat the Red Rebels the next time you meet them?

Of course Ferguson replied without hesitation, I am a head coach and it is my job to defeat my opponents, including the Red Rebels.

Although I admire the Red Rebels very much and appreciate their technical and tactical skills, once I have to face them, I will do everything possible to find their loopholes and exploit them in order to defeat my opponent. This is my profession. Morality

As a senior who has been in the football industry for more than 50 years, how do you evaluate Mourinho? the reporter asked slightly provocatively.

A great manager, he is responsible for a large part of the Red Rebels' success.

Isn't it created by him? the reporter asked again.

Ferguson shook his head, The glory of the Red Rebels was not created by one person, but by a group of people, including Xiao Yu, Jim Cassel, Meulensteen, Moniz, Boyas, Faria and others. It was they who created the glory of the Red Rebel Army.

Last question, Manchester United will play Arsenal away from home on Saturday, and the Red Rebels will play Chelsea at home. Can you predict the outcome of these two games?

Ferguson smiled and said, We will beat Arsenal, and the Red Rebels can also beat Chelsea.

…

Xiao Yu was listening to Ferguson's interview with Sky TV in the office, but his heart was filled with excitement.

For him, the Red Rebels were successful enough. If it weren't for the efforts of Walsh and others to stay, he would have left the team as early as 2007. Over the past two years, he has gradually begun to take control of the team. decentralization of power.

This season, Xiao Yu is just a nominal chairman for the Red Rebels. The real people in charge are Walsh, Mark David and Mourinho. They are the troika of the Red Rebels management. Three major sections responsible for team affairs.

The three people have worked together for a long time, have a good relationship with each other, and are all capable. Xiao Yu has complete confidence in them. He is convinced that under their leadership, the Red Rebels will be able to continue to create great and brilliant achievements.

However, Xiao Yu is leaving

Just this season

He has already decided. In order to prevent himself from looking back again, he has decided to hold an internal meeting of the team and disclose his decision to the club in advance to block his retreat.

It's enough to have the Red Rebels in my life, isn't it? Xiao Yu murmured to himself while looking at the TV.

He was once just an ordinary person, but after time travel and rebirth, he was given the opportunity to create miracles. He did not miss the opportunity, he seized it, and created a legendary journey that he could be proud of.

Knock knock~

The secretary walked in from outside the door, They are all here, Mr. Xiao Yu, waiting for you in the conference room for the meeting.

Xiao Yu nodded, turned around and walked out of his office.

…………

…………

Xiao Yu put his hands on the table, half-bent, staring at the group of companions and comrades in front of him who he had worked with for many years. Many of them were people who followed him when he founded the Red Rebel Army. , such as Walsh, Mark David, driver Jim and others, they are the backbone of the Red Rebels

When I decided to hold this meeting, the club's press officer reminded me that announcing this matter at this time may bring huge changes to the team, and may even lead to the team's collapse. The combat effectiveness is at a loss, or it may cause fluctuations in the team's performance.

But I decided to say it in advance, because in my opinion, you... Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and swept across everyone present, Everyone of you, in my mind, is mine. Comrade-in-arms, my partner, I will never betray my comrades-in-arms, nor will I deceive my partners. I believe the same is true for you.

I'm leaving, Xiao Yu said lightly.

The entire conference room suddenly became noisy. Players, coaches, and staff all started to make noises. They were all a little stunned and wondering, what did Xiao Yu mean by these words?

Xiao Yu made a quiet and calm movement with his hands, and everyone immediately sat down quietly.

It has been almost 12 years since the establishment of the Red Rebels. During these 12 years, I have dedicated all my energy to this team. I believe many of you are the same. I have dedicated myself to the team. I neglected my wife, my son, and I felt like I had to take responsibility for it all.”

The Red Rebels are on the right track. Facts have proved that Andy Walsh, Mark David, Jose Mourinho, you can do better than me. You can use your expertise, mutual assistance We have the spirit to jointly manage this team. If this is the case, then why should I still miss it?

After I leave, Andy Walsh will be promoted to chairman of the Red Rebels club, Mark Davey will be promoted to general manager of the Red Rebels, and Jose Mourinho will still control the athletics department, youth training department and scouting department. Waiting for the department, look, all this has not changed much, I believe that the Red Rebels will continue to move forward, right?

Xiao Yu opened his arms vigorously, just to make everyone believe what he said, but when he saw that in front of him, many people had tears in their eyes, and many people were lying on the table. Crying, he was also moved.

I am very fortunate to have a group of comrades like you and to have fought side by side with you for these 12 years. You are all brave Red Rebel soldiers. I also hope that you can continue to work hard to defend the dignity of our Red Rebel Army.

Although I have left, I am still a fan of the Red Rebels. I will still sit in the stands every game, whether it is home or away, whether it is league or cup, whether it is rainy or sunny, even if it comes to my In the future, when I get old and can no longer walk, I will let my children push me to the stadium.

This is a team that you and I jointly created. This is our common belief. Please believe that I will not leave you, just as you have never left me.

I am proud of our players, coaches, and staff. We are on a path to create miracles this season. I feel extremely proud and proud, so I want to tell our warriors that you can promise me to create a miracle. An unprecedented miracle, given to me as a farewell gift?

Can you help me create a myth so that many, many years from now, countless years from now, as long as there is still football in this world, they will remember that in the 2009/2010 season, the Red Rebels created an unprecedented myth of winning the championship. Won the Premier League, League Cup, FA Cup and European Champions Cup with an unprecedented victory record, completing the Grand Slam of victory and creating an unprecedented myth in the history of football.

Can you do it?

Okay. As soon as Xiao Yu finished his words, Curtis was the first to stand up. At this time, his face was already filled with tears.

I swear, I, Curtis Davis, am willing to use up all my strength and all my efforts to help you, my most respected boss. I am willing to help you fulfill your dream while protecting Our Faith

I do too. Kaka also stood up. Without you, without the Red Rebels, there would be no me. I will never forget the help you and the Red Rebels gave me. I will use my life to fulfill my promise.

Messi also stood up. His short body was a head shorter than Kaka and others, but he looked extremely tall at this time, but his face was full of tears. He tried hard to wipe them away, but Soon it came pouring out again.

I still remember that we were only a team in the tenth tier of England. At that time, our club only had 150,000 pounds, but you were willing to spend more than half of it to pay for my treatment, even... you didn't You dare to tell me this, thanks to me secretly overhearing it.

At that moment, I told myself in my heart that I will always belong to the Red Rebels, and I am willing to spend my life to repay your dedication and help to me, whether now or in the future, this sentence I will always keep your words in my heart.”

Yes, I am also willing to help you create a myth and be loyal to the Red Rebels forever.

We've got your back, boss.

…

The players stood up one by one and promised Xiao Yu that they would use the biggest miracle in football history as a gift for Xiao Yu's retirement, that they would continue to protect the Red Rebels after Xiao Yu left, and that they would continue to protect the Red Rebels after Xiao Yu left. The feelings of the Red Rebels.

The whole scene was so intense and touching that many people couldn't help crying.

But none of this was known to outsiders. After all, all the people attending the meeting were Red Rebels and no outsiders. Although the media could get some information, they were unable to learn the details.

It was not until many, many years later that the Red Rebels officially released a memorial book and disclosed this detail for the first time. They named this meeting: Pledge of Allegiance Before the Holy War.

This scene has also become one of the most attractive tourist attractions in the Red Rebel Main Park. Every fan who comes here is eager to visit the scene at that time and experience the excitement and excitement of this swearing-in meeting in person. Excited
